I'm writing you as one of the most active Commons users right now. Since a while now, the idea of a dedicated Commons conference has been floating around. But since the last Wikimania concrete steps have been taken to actually make it happen next year.
If you're interested in participation or maybe willing to help organize the first ever Commons Conference, I invite you to check out the project page and leave your comments; or just show your support for the idea, by signing up.

Thank you for contributing to Wiki Loves Monuments 2017 in the United States during the month of October! The United States contest saw over 1,400 people (the most of any nation this year) contribute over 8,000 great photos of cultural and historic sites from all over the United States and its territories. Hundreds of these photos are already being used to illustrate pages on various Wikimedia projects.

We're excited to announce that our national judging process has concluded, and that we have selected the winners of Wiki Loves Monuments 2017 in the United States! These photos are recognized for their photographic quality, artistic merit, and their encyclopedic value as illustrations of unique historical sites. We were amazed by all of the uploads, and regret only being able to formally recognize the top 10. That being said – congratulations to our national winners and their amazing shots! Our 10 winners will be sent to the international Wiki Loves Monuments jury, who will then select the winners of the international contest. If you're interested in seeing the winners of the other national contests, you may do so at Wiki Loves Monuments 2017 winners.

If you would like to view all the photos submitted for the U.S. this year, you may do so here.

Finally, we have also created a feedback form for all U.S. participants to fill out. The survey is optional and anonymous, and only takes a minute or two – we hope to use the feedback to organize better events in the future!

A quick thank you to our national jury, as well as Commons editors who have helped categorize and place photos for the event. And finally, thank you for participating in Wiki Loves Monuments and helping to preserve our history through photography - we hope to see you again for future Commons photography events!

Hello, I blocked 1VeertjeBot because it is not approved. It is also causing a huge backlog of patrolled edits. Best --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:51, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

Steinsplitter would you be ok with me deblocking my bot account for a bit so I can correct the "Videos of YYYY by country" categories I created? As Auntof6 pointed out I forgot to add "country" to the {{Metacat}}. --Vera(talk) 12:11, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Nevermind, I see they already fixed it. --Vera(talk) 12:13, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Ok :-). I have seen you filed a "request or botflag" thanks. --Steinsplitter (talk) 12:15, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi, 1Veertje. Your bot has been creating metacategories with incomplete {{metacat}} template coding. That template needs a parameter to indicate the sorting criterion. For example, the template on Category:Videos of 1959 by country should be {{metacat|country}}. Please be sure to include the parameter when you or your bot create a metacategory. Thanks. --Auntof6 (talk) 04:01, 24 November 2017 (UTC)

Ah, sorry about that. Will try to keep that in mind in the future.--Vera(talk) 12:04, 24 November 2017 (UTC)

Your photograph was a photograph of a photograph of Pattypan. That makes it not entirely your work to license but a derivative work. At the time it was a speedy deletion request since it was an open and shot case.--Vera(talk) 11:06, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

Dear 1Veertje, I sometimes use your useful Dememorixer. There is a [[Category:Dememorixer]], but that Category is used to identify images that could be "upgraded" with the Dememorixer. Is there also a category that identifies images that have been upgraded by the Dememorixer? Vysotsky (talk) 14:12, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

it seems that links that didn't work before now do, AND vice versa. That's not quite what I had expected. First need to get some sleep though. There doesn't seem to be a pattern to which links fall in either category 🙀 Vera(talk) 02:05, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

Hello. Just to let you know about this edit which removed a tag. I’ve fixed it. Green Giant (talk) 10:51, 2 January 2018 (UTC)

The Greg Moring and The Forum Fountain were placed before 1978 so {{PD-US-no notice}} would apply. For the fountain we don't know for sure that the notice doesn't have a copyright notice, for the Greg Morning sculpture we do. The artist for the Roger B. Taney monument died in the 19th century. The signage at the Lexington Market might be old enough, but I can't find documentation about it. --Vera(talk) 22:10, 24 January 2018 (UTC)

I identified all the churches in Category:1Veertje Baltimore and added them to the correct church categories. I didn't add date categories to most of them, mostly because I'm lazy tonight. Just so you know: Some of the photos have GPS coordinates that are off by several hundred meters; the Android probably was probably a little slow to catch up. I didn't change the coordinates. --Closeapple (talk) 05:06, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

I am writing to ask you whether it would be possible to restore these files concerning some of these portraits of an unknown artist executed between the seventeenth and eighteenth century, the artist since he died for 100 years, the most correct license included in the following files was PD-100 ,,

I would be blocked right away ,, please could you restore this list, only pr this time ?? ,, then I'll see to see the davare on my own ok ??? —Preceding unsigned comment was added by 87.8.55.29 (talk) 14:24, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

ok, then I'll try to make a request on Commons: undeletion request, but I would like to mention you to have at least one vote in your favor, could you do me this favor during the request ?, otherwise the user will arrive Jeff who will cancel my request , (since I had asked him a thousand times to stop, but he went to call other administrators to spread the fact that I publish only copyviol, from the file that you restored so kindly, it is not so ,, I thank you fully for the restored file) —Preceding unsigned comment was added by 87.8.55.29 (talk) 16:47, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

that trailer was published on YouTube by the creators of the game itself. The footage you uploaded was recorded by someone unrelated to the creators. It's a derivative workVera(talk) 17:52, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

I'm sorry, you're right, this is OK! Bandai Namco is this game's publisher and this is their official channel. Hopefully they know what they're doing when they chose their license but that isn't necessarily our problem. They have also published Dragon Ball Z footage on their channel under a free license - something they are definitely not the only copyright holders to. :( Vera(talk) 18:03, 7 June 2018 (UTC)

No idea why you consider it necessary to ping me here, anyway I don't understand why this photo has not been deleted, its status is still unclear to me from what is given in the description, the source link is to a different photo, its author is Lex Draijer whereas here according to the EXIF data Christiaan Krouwels. Maybe there is something to fix in the description, but otherwise I'll have to nominate this photo a second time. --A.Savin 16:35, 28 June 2018 (UTC)

Hello! Last year you contributed to Wiki Loves Monuments 2017 in the United States. Thanks to people like you it was a great success, with over 1,400 people contributing over 8,000 photos of cultural and historic sites from all over the country. Hundreds of these photos now help illustrate Wikipedia articles, improving our open knowledge about United States history, culture, and heritage.

I'm pleased to say that we're back this year with Wiki Loves Monuments 2018 in the United States, and I'd like to welcome you to participate once again in the event. Check out our updated event page for more information. The event runs similar to last year with some small but exciting changes: improved state guides, an interactive map, and a larger prize pool! Like last year, you'll be able to upload your photos of any registered historical site in the United States through the end of September (even if the photos were taken before this month).

Once again, thank you for participating in Wiki Loves Monuments 2017, and we hope to see you again in this year's event! If you'd like to respond to this message directly, please do so on on my talk page. ~Kevin Payravi(talk) 11:45, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Support I agree that this is the best in scope, shows the subject well and is widely used. However, the description needs to be updated (geolocalisation + adress + mention that it belonged to Lehman Brothers until they went bankrupt). Skimel (talk) 17:24, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi Vera, This is something from a long time ago. On 28 August 2015 you suggested to delete this file as it would be missing information about where it comes from or who created it, which would be needed to verify its copyright status. There is no missing information however. The image consists of two halves. It is clearly indicated at "Source" that the picture (i.e. the photo, the left half) is my own work, while the newspaper clipping (the right half of the image) comes from a source of which I gave the full web address. So I do not understand what the problem was. Luckily the file has been retained. Loranchet (talk) 21:32, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi Vera, this is again an old one, but it irritated me much at the time as I put a lot of effort in the article in which this picture was posted. But I found no time to pick up this issue. You suggested on 28 August 2015 to delete the file in heading and a second file: File:Netherlands, Den Haag, Ockenburgh, opgravingen, 1930s (2).jpg In both cases your stated reason was that 1930 (or 1938) was too recent to be free from copyright. That is true in case the author is known, but in case of anonymous or pseudonymous works or works published by a legal entity the copyright expires 70 years after the first publication. See here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries%27_copyright_lengths And this is the case for both files. The authors/writers are unknown, and the works were published by a legal entity, in this case a private company, namely a newspaper publisher. So would it be possible for you to re-upload those files or else explain where my arument goes wrong? Many thanks! Loranchet (talk) 21:50, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

a newspaper article is not anonymous. The original author can be traced back in the newspaper's records and the newspaper holds the copyright as the author's employer. Works don't only have to be cleared for the country of publication, but also the US where it's 100 years. Vera(talk) 22:52, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

[5] I'm not sure why it thought that the video was from 1970. (Maybe the typo in the date, which I have now fixed?) But as much as I wish I had a time machine and could go back and change the result of the game, it was from 2018. ;) --B (talk) 12:26, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

Hmm that's weird. Computers keep track of dates by counting the amount of seconds that have elapsed since January 1st 1970, so giberish/0/null gets interpreted as such. There are instructions for my bot to ignore January 1st 1970 for that reason. I have to check why it's ignoring its instructions. --Vera(talk) 12:32, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

What language are you using? Is there some equivalent of Nullable<DateTime> in your language? --B (talk) 12:53, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

PHP (don't judge, I know, it would be more reasonable to write in Python. it's what I'm used to). Just checked my code. I just checked, and I hadn't actually included logic to just ignore 1970. it should be fixed now. this line was suppose to catch bad interpretations, but I guess it didn't.--Vera(talk) 13:24, 27 September 2018 (UTC)

There seems to be a problem regarding the description and/or licensing of this particular file. It has been found that you've added in the image's description only a Template that's not a license and although it provides useful information about the image, it's not a valid license. Could you please resolve this problem, adding the license in the image linked above? You can edit the description page and change the text. Uploading a new version of the file does not change the description of the file. This page may give you more hints on which license to choose. Thank you.

If you are uploading a youtube video which is very long--say 45 minutes or 1 hour in the above case--please consider typing in the time of the youtube clip since it can be hard to find the image. As in the case below.

Like President Reagan says "trust but verify." I trust you but I don't know where the image is in this 1 hour+ video clip. I do my best but some people are terrible: they upload videos which are 2 hours and 30 minutes long with 1 single video clip and no time reference. At least, you are quite reasonable. Thank You, --Leoboudv (talk) 20:22, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

I will try to keep this in mind. In this case: it's slightly after the 1:03:00 mark. --Vera(talk) 20:27, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

Comment: It was (1:03:11) Thanks for the help. No wonder I could not find it. I did not scroll that close to the end and I had 1 hour of material to scroll through. The image is now marked. Best Regards Madam from Vancouver, Canada, --Leoboudv (talk) 21:16, 19 October 2018 (UTC)

Though, that change appears to introduce 1 new jshint issue — the page's status is now having warnings. Note that invalid or ambiguous code often has unwanted side effects like breaking other tools for you. If you cannot find out how to fix it, I suggest blanking the page for now.

To help you understanding where the issues are, I have aggregated a report here and now. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask users experienced in javascript writing for help. But do not ask the bot's operators (chronically overwrought) unless you suspect an error of mine. If you prefer not getting spammed by me, you can opt-out reports by adding {{ValidationOptOut|type=all}} to your user page. Good luck at Wikimedia Commons and happy hacking!

I was testing out a little script that will crop and upload the thumbnail of videos published by the German association for the promotion of science. As you can see on their YouTube channel they feature a scientist on the left and a title card on the right. This will result in one upload to Wikimedia Commons every Wednesday. Vera(talk) 13:15, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

Thanks:-) Feel free to test your script at test.wiki. At any case, for further testing, please leave a minimal note at the user-page detailing the purpose of usage and more importantly, provide a minimal data, over the uploads, that can identify them as not violating copyright laws.FWIW, I have unblocked your alt and restored the deleted photos.Winged Blades Godric 05:20, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

I've worked out the script so there's no need to keep the pictures around on test wiki. I had expected them to be deleted by now. Vera(talk) 08:14, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

Though, that change appears to introduce 1 new prettyCss issue — the page's status is now having warnings. Note that invalid or ambiguous code often has unwanted side effects like breaking other tools for you. If you cannot find out how to fix it, I suggest blanking the page for now.

To help you understanding where the issues are, I have aggregated a report here and now. If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask users experienced in css writing for help. But do not ask the bot's operators (chronically overwrought) unless you suspect an error of mine. If you prefer not getting spammed by me, you can opt-out reports by adding {{ValidationOptOut|type=all}} to your user page. Good luck at Wikimedia Commons and happy hacking!

Hi, As this photo needed special authorization, and also this user has also similar uploads, Please review this photo for copyright. I think this is not his own work. Thanks نیکات (talk) 16:10, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

I noticed you've uploaded File:NMD 2018 FOLK (41168875934) (cropped).jpg and I thought I should draw your attention to a common error.Please give some thought to writing a good description of uploaded images. This ensures that they can be used. It also helps those that review and improve categories do a better job, which also ensures that images will get used in novel and interesting ways. Thanks, and happy editing!

the Dutch language Wikipedia doesn't have local files. There is no fair use material we allow on there and whatever free license material we had was transferred to Commons a decade ago. Vera(talk) 07:36, 21 December 2018 (UTC)

Why you the use "NOPING"? Because you tryied to hide that you spit your lies here on 1Veertje'spage. STOP Trolling&Hounding me and your ill deleting tricks.FFA P-16 (talk) 18:11, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

I basically cannot hide anything on any Wiki, because every edit gets saved. That you already messed up with other users is not my fault.--2003:E2:AF06:4F00:88AD:EF69:1B91:5511 18:33, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

Three of your nominations at MOTD/talk have been archived by a bot. I think, something went wrong? --C.Suthorn (talk) 08:17, 8 January 2019 (UTC)

I had proposed then for dates in 2019, but at the time the matrix of months wasn't yet expanded to include the months of this year. Nobody responded to the nominations and over time they were archived automatically. I don't mind them being turned down as nominations but I'd prefer it to have at least some response.

Hi Veertje,
just want to inform you, that your crop here[6] resulted in adding a picture of Burhan Sönmez (your crop File:Burhan_Sönmez_-_Foire_du_Livre_de_Francfort_2017_(37600767186)_(cropped).jpg) being added to the Wikidata Item of Aslı Erdoğan (Q468099)[7]. This automatically happens in your name on Wikidata.[8]
This happened because the template "Crop for Wikidata"[Template:Crop for Wikidata] was attached to to original picture with the intent to get a crop for Asli Erdogan. If you're the first to make a crop of this picture, the crop will then be automatically added to Wikidata. Actually there is a small box/information after cropping (before uploading the crop), where you can choose if you want to add the crop to the respective (guessed) Wikidata-Item.
This just to let you know, in case there were more of this and you didn't know. I'll clean up the Wikidata-Item of Asli and (if needed) Burhan. Regards --Mirer (talk) 10:48, 30 January 2019 (UTC)

on flickr, you can see the photo is in the album for the 2008 edition of The Next Web conference, with the album description stating photos should be credited to Julia de Boer. Boris Veldhuizen van Zanten is the director of The Next Web and used to use this Flickr account as his personal account. Vera(talk) 20:47, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

Hey, how is that a copyright violation? I did it myself, completely from scratch, no reused parts or anything. (It was a hell lot of work.)
Just reusing the concepts in your own art shouldn't make it a copyright violation, otherwise paraphrasing some text would do so as well.--Pink kitty111 (talk) 13:20, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

Have you even watched them side by side?.. :-( --Pink kitty111 (talk) 13:21, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

You didn't make it from scratch, you copied it from the original. The way you copied it doesn't matter. What you're referring to with "paraphrasing" is the fair use principle, we don't allow fair use material on Wikimedia Commons. --Vera(talk) 12:04, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Damn sure i made it from scratch. I used nothing more than my memory. Why do you claim i didn't? - It cost me hours to do this one.--Pink kitty111 (talk) 12:09, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

If there's a all-rights-reserved copyrighted photo of something, and somebody goes there and takes basically the exact same shot again and releases it under some free license, we have no problem with that one here on Commons. Why should this be different?--Pink kitty111 (talk) 12:16, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

You didn't even wait for a proper deletion discussion to finish!.. :-( --Pink kitty111 (talk) 12:20, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

And paraphrasing is not fair use. It is completely okay on Wikipedia and anywhere else.--Pink kitty111 (talk) 12:23, 1 April 2019 (UTC)

Oppose Alas the entire image is affected, the tree too. We can not ask everyone if one does not respect it. If he does not know how to do it, just ask him; many people will do it for him. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 05:20, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

Comment Tricky because it's tilted as well as keystoned. Is this version more acceptable? I know we've lost some of the edges of the tree, but that's sometimes unavoidable in a tightly-framed shot. Rodhullandemu (talk) 22:02, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

Comment I made a proposal for corrections; the losses are minimal. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 04:53, 5 May 2019 (UTC)
